My great grandmother had a Black butler and maid... when she died she left the 2nd house and 60,000 dollars to the both of them. Matthew the butler wept at the funeral

sounds totally real and not at all made up, but how generous of her, huh

Hell yeah Let Us Go <:nasalies:485141702403686403>

and i guess if you're _nice_ to the humans you own as property that you can also sell at-will, it excuses you of well, owning slaves

Yes. Matthew was an incredble man. So was Sophie

They WERE family in our house

Luckily the bible told us how to correctly treat slaves

Get over yerself

by not having any, right

that perhaps it isn't morally right to have complete ownership over someone else's entire existence

but if you're nice to them, well

then it makes it ok

That's not the point

So whats the point?

He came to us voluntarily. It was a job. NOT SLAVERY you dolt

the point is that we shouldn't be too mad at them because, despite owning slaves, they were nice to them

not rlly

it almost like being house staff were the among the only jobs accessible to them at that time

gee i wonder why

Good lord, are you serious?

you are taking ownership of a human

that is not right in any way

Not true

"slave"

how is that not true?

We are not in the 1860s any more

no, you see, when you're sold against your will to some wealthy plantation owner

you're also agreeing to it

@DerpyOwais government does that when you get your birth certificate, that is your slave paper now

true

but not exactly

lmfao

that is total hypocracy to call "real slavery" and government something different,

Not really

yes getting a certificate of your birth is the same, as uh, _checks notes_ being sold into chattel slavery folks

high-level thinking here

democracy is voting to take away other peoples rights to benefit yours, a great slave system

Yes it is

I'm I'm the movie theater

I'm about to see godzilla
